Descriptiontext

Europa Sports Products, operating today as Europa Sports Partners, is a Charlotte, North Carolina-based company founded in 1990 that has historically functioned as a wholesale distributor of sports and fitness supplements. Following its acquisition by Prenetics (a consumer health and wellness company) on August 19, 2024, the business has executed a fundamental operational pivot: as of July 31, 2025, all legacy wholesale distribution through www.europasports.com has been discontinued, and operations have been consolidated onto Hubmatrix, the company's third-party logistics (3PL) platform.

The Hubmatrix platform provides D2C (direct-to-consumer) fulfillment services, process management, and retail-channel integrations targeted at fitness and nutrition brands and retailers. It is positioned as a 3PL infrastructure layer that enables brand clients to manage multi-channel D2C relationships through a unified operations backbone. The company has indicated it is developing a specialized extension of Hubmatrix to re-enter the fitness vertical with solutions tailored to modern retail and brand needs. Headcount is reported at 251-500 employees.

The business model has shifted from product-margin wholesale distribution to managed-services revenue tied to 3PL fulfillment volumes, storage, and integration services. Following the Prenetics acquisition, the entity is projected to contribute revenue exceeding $100 million by FY2025. The customer base is described in vertical terms — fitness and nutrition brands/retailers as the primary segment, with consumer health and wellness as a secondary segment under Prenetics ownership. No named customer logos, customer counts, or pricing schedules are publicly disclosed. Geographic scope is stated as Southeast US, with no claimed global footprint.
